Content Type: Infographic

Do you see yourself or others shift to ‘double down’ or ‘toughen up’ in the face of difficulty?

Instructions

Consider what happens when you ‘toughen up’.

  • What happens to your flexibility?
  • What happens to your ability to listen to others, listen to your own needs?
  • What happens to your stress?

Being tough negates flexibility. Especially long-term.
